it's not just megaplexes vs. home theatre...


there are fine cinemas in between. where i live (cambridge, ma) we're terribly lucky -- a world-class film archive (www.harvardfilmarchive.org) and an astonishingly well-curated repertory house (www.brattlefilm.org) are within walking distance, and a nine-screen landmark indie megaplex is two subway stops away. even in other areas, though, there is growing interest in somewhat offbeat film these days -- look at the commercial successes of a company like landmark.

the real treasures, though, are outfits like the brattle -- theatres dedicated to film art, not film business. sure, it's a wacky rear-projection system, and a mono sound system, but the quality of the offerings make them worthy of my business. if you've got similar theatres in your area, it's worth paying them a visit. less annoying teenagers, too :o)
